***rr Video***
Well folks, Trevor has given me the nod to post the videos from yesterdays RR run...
It was both very exciting for those who were there, and even though we had a technical difficulty on the rollers, we all agreed it was an experience to remember!
Unfortunately, we had an intercooler coupler leak, and lost boost during the run.
This is one of the reasons we like to RR our tuned cars before selling them, as the only indicator before the run was a mild boost drop, but given our wildly varying atmospheric condtions, it wasnt much, but whilst on the rollers, the boost leak was audible.
all in, and even with a total lack of boost as the tear widened, we posted a credible 195lb ft of torque and a similar portion of BHP.
Last night we all fault traced it down to a tiny little rip in a coupler to the nearside of the intercooler, though as a precaution, we shall replace every coupler to avoid the same happening in future.
you can all expect a further run and videos in the very near future!
Pre Run Checks
First Run
second run
We hope you enjoy the audible delights this car provides so easily, and look forward to posting a much happier result in the near future - stay tuned!

sounds the tit's, take it you got a screamer pipe on it, must get full boost early,
so has it got a split boost pipe or crack in the cooler?
